Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Are Oracle courses required for Oracle Certification now?
Thanks everyone for pointing out the value of the original test certificate. I'm sitting here is stunned bafflement at how inconsistent this is with the idea of "high tech". ( background sound of DBA frantically riffling through stacks of papers on his desk)

Dennis,
When i was taking the initial OCP exams I received a score sheet from
the testing orginization the day I passed each test. The only time I
received any thing related to Oracle was after I passed all tests and
then I received a certification suitable for framing. I also received an
email that directed me to the Oracle site where the "Certified
Professional" logo image is stored and a password to download the image
(suitable for business cards and letterheads).

Hey - when I took each exam, the testing organization says that I
should
receive something from Oracle within a couple of weeks. Got nothing.
Should
I be worried?

Hey William,
Why are you 40% OCP - does this mean you are an OCA? When did you take
your
very
first 9i certification exam? If you took it before Sept. 1, 2002, the
you're
a
50% OCP.
